Laguna San Rafael Chile

"Some 150 nautical miles south of Puerto Chacabuco lies Laguna San Rafael. Getting there is in itself a wonderful experience. The ship cruises through waterways, fjords and estuaries that offer the most stunning scenery.

Ships have to anchor some distance from the lagoon. Silversea has chartered a comfortable 90-passenger catamaran that will come alongside the ship, taking guests the last stretch to the laguna. Only smaller vessels can enter the narrow mouth of the 27-mile-long Laguna San Rafael. In addition to a ring of green-clad mountains, the premier attraction is the majestic glacier. It originates at San Valentín Mountain and makes its way gradually toward the water. The jagged ice field of the glacier is part of the Laguna San Rafael National Park, accessible only by air or sea.
